12 Class Rank All students ranked in order of GPA Determined by averaging all semester grades earned in eligible classes Eligible high school courses from middle school are included #1 = Valedictorian #2 = Salutatorian Top 10% = Automatic Admissions
13 Top 10% College Admissions Ranked in the top 10% of their graduating class Eligible for automatic admission to any public university in Texas except for the University of Texas Admission does not guarantee acceptance into a particular college of study or department
14 Advanced Course Options
15 Pre-AP Prepare students for success in college level course work in high school and beyond.

Review entry and exit guidelines in the course guide!
16 Advanced Placement (AP) For students who wish to pursue college-level studies while in high school Frequently have summer assignments Weighted HS credit Additional weight for taking AP exam May earn college credit based on score on AP test (generally 3 or higher) Review entry and exit guidelines in the course guide!

Weighted HS credit LVISD offers multiple options: OnRamps through UT-Austin, ACC Dual Credit, & TXVSN. Have eligibility requirements (TSI). Check with prospective colleges to determine if a course will count! Review entry and exit guidelines in the course guide!
18 Getting Ready for College
19 College Visits Juniors and seniors are allowed two college visit days per year. Principal must give prior approval. College Day permission form available in the office. Students need to provide verification of the college visit.
20 College Entrance Exams Standardized tests are required for entry into most colleges/universities. Three primary exams: Texas Success Initiative Assessment (TSIA) Texas Only Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) American College Test (ACT)
21 TSIA Prior to enrollment in a Texas public college or university, students must demonstrate readiness or meet TSI in English & Math May take a standardized test called the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) assessment SAT/ACT also allow students to meet TSI Meeting TSI is required before a student enrolls in a dual-credit course State law allows students to exempt TSI for dual credit purposes only Level 2 final recommended score English II EOC 435 on the ACT-Aspire English test; 431 on the ACT-Aspire Math PSAT/NMSQT - but scores still haven t been determined.
22 SAT/ACT Many colleges require either ACT or the SAT for admission. These exams are usually taken at the end of the junior year. Preparatory and readiness assessments for the SAT and ACT are the PSAT and ACT-Aspire.
23 LVISD and PSAT
24 Why the PSAT? Students take for free in 8 th, 9 th, 10 th, and 11 th grades. (Thank you LVISDEF!) Identify academic strengths and weaknesses. Practice for the SAT that will have an impact on their college application process. FREE personalized SAT & college planning tools online.
25 National Merit PSAT/NMSQT qualifies 11 th graders for the National Merit Scholarship Program Complicated process determined after test and is based on Selection Index Must answer four questions correctly to be entered Two levels of recognition: Commended - top 3% nationally Semifinalist - top 1% by state One word - SCHOLARSHIPS
26 National Merit 4 Questions Student answer document must indicate that he/she: Is in 11th grade Is planning to graduate on time Is planning to enroll in a full-time college no later than the fall after graduation, and Is a US citizen or lawful resident who intends to become a U.S. citizen at the earliest opportunity allowed by law.
27 National Merit Selection Index To calculate, double the sum of of your Reading, Writing and Language, and Math Test scores. In 2016, the national Selection Index score for National Merit Commended was 209. In 2016, the Selection Index score for National Merit Semifinalists was 220 in Texas. It s important to remember that being in the top 99% of ALL test takers is not the same as being at the top of the students who qualify to enter the program it s a higher bar.
28 Changes to PSAT/SAT in 2015 The score range is 1520 (not 1600!) Range of 160 to 760 for both the Math and Reading/Writing sections. Reading and Writing sections are combined into one overall score.
29 Changes to Remember Words in Context: No more obscure and seemingly random words, commonly called SAT words. Now students will encounter relevant words and phrases that derive their meanings form the contexts in which they are used.
30 Changes to Remember No Penalty for Guessing: The redesigned tests remove the penalty for guessing that has been used to score the SAT in the past.

How do your ACT/SAT scores compare with other students scores? What honors and awards have you received? What extracurricular activities/volunteer activities are you involved in? What does your college essay say about your writing ability and about you? What do recommendations say about you?
